Sumérgete en el hilarante y satírico mundo de 'A Confederacy of Dunces' de John Kennedy Toole. Esta novela clásica sigue las desventuras del excéntrico Ignatius J. Reilly en Nueva Orleans, un personaje inolvidable en una cruzada contra la modernidad y la ignorancia. Con un humor mordaz y personajes entrañables, esta obra maestra te hará reír a carcajadas mientras reflexiona sobre la sociedad y la condición humana.
John Kennedy Toole was an American novelist from New Orleans, Louisiana, whose posthumously published novel, A Confederacy of Dunces, won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1981. At 16 in 1954, he wrote his first novel, The Neon Bible, which he shelved in the same year, not finding a willing publisher; he later dismissed it as "adolescent". Toole was a successful and popular professor, first at University of Southwestern Louisiana, then Hunter College, and finally St. Mary's Dominican College in New Orleans. Having persuaded Simon & Schuster, however, to accept A Confederacy of Dunces, he was unable to resolve editorial disputes. Due in part to the novel's failure, he suffered from paranoia and depression, dying by suicide at the age of 31.
